Abstract
A method for image processing of a plurality of digital images comprising the steps of determining one or more sets of pixel characteristics, each set having at least one characteristic that is location independent; determining for each pixel characteristic set, an image processing filter; providing a mixing function algorithm embodied on a computer-readable medium for modifying the plurality of digital images; and processing each of the digital images by applying the mixing function algorithm based on the one or more pixel characteristic sets and determined image processing filters. Various mixing function algorithms are described. An application program interface embodied on a computer-readable medium is also provided.
Claims19
A method for image processing of a plurality of digital images comprising the steps of:
- providing one or more than one image processing filter;
- setting the coordinates of one or more than one image reference point, each image reference point being associated with location dependent or location independent characteristics;
- providing a mixing function algorithm embodied on a computer-readable medium for modifying the plurality of digital images;
- and
- processing each of the plurality of digital images by applying the mixing function algorithm based on the one or more than one image processing filter and one or more of the set image reference points which are associated with location independent characteristics.

A method for image processing of a plurality of digital images comprising steps for:
- determining one or more location independent pixel characteristic sets;
- selecting an image processing filter;
- and
- processing each of the digital images by application of a mixing function algorithm embodied on a computer-readable medium, as a function of the one or more location independent pixel characteristic sets and selected image processing filter.
